Putin Again Dumps CIA Boss' Warning List? Inside Russia's New 'Nuke-Capable' ICBM; '6,000+ Range...'

Russia has successfully tested a mobile-based, solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome, with the missile travelling over 6,700 kilometres to the Kura test range in Kamchatka. While Moscow did not officially identify the missile, reports suggest it was the RS-24 Yars, one of Russia's key nuclear-capable strategic missile systems. Unlike silo-based ICBMs, the mobile RS-24 Yars can be launched from transporter-erector-launchers (TELs), making it difficult to detect and target. Powered by solid fuel, the missile remains in constant launch readiness and can be fired quickly with minimal preparation. It is also capable of carrying Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicles (MIRVs), allowing a single missile to deliver multiple warheads against separate targets while deploying decoys to complicate missile defence systems.
